A-Z of Me: F

F

Fire
– Fire is a big part of my
life, my mum works in Fire Safety writing standards and doing
certification for products and factories, I was brought up in and
around her work. Now I'm a grown up my PhD is also in Fire Sciences,
specifically Fire Materials Science formulating phosphorous based
flame retardant coatings. Plus, what's not to love about fire? Aside
from the whole burning thing. It looks stunning and I adore the smell
of woodsmoke.

February
- my birth month had to get a
mention on an A – Z of me!

Fears
– I have a few fears, mostly
they're pretty run of the mill; I'm not a massive fan of heights, or
at least heights where I'm not fully secured so really it's more a
fear of falling than heights themselves, I do get super nervous
standing on wobbly chairs. I'm not too big on clowns or spiders
either, and now my grandparents are old I am forever in fear of them
dying though again I imagine that's fairly normal. But for slightly
odder ones I'm scared of phone conversations. If you make me ring
someone I will end up in a wobbly, half-tearful mess, especially if
anything goes even slightly wrong with the call. I hate phones, with
a passion, I'll text or email instead wherever possible.

Fossils
– growing up I was fascinated with fossils and fossil hunters,
tying in to my fascination with dinosaurs and the prehistoric world.
I remember going fossil hunting on the Isle of Wight and religiously
watching a video we had about dinosaurs and fossil hunting (it was
3D, with the funny red and blue glasses).
